I believe this is poor advice. The car is 2 1/2 yrs old and
has 50,000 miles on it. The refund request has zero chance
of success and throwing lawyer money on top of the hopeless
situation is just going to make it worse for the original poster.

Not to put too fine a point on it but that is complete and utter rubbish.
Audi almost certainly have an in house legal team that could deal with it
for a fraction of the cost you suggest. Even if they did not any high street
solicitor would be able to advise them for a tenth of that. The OP would
have to take action in the High Court and employ a solicitor who would
probably instruct a barrister just to get the action started. That is always
assuming the OP can find a solicitor to take the case on which is doubtful.
